The Sarsfields
U14 team played Maghery on Sunday in splendid conditions for football. The
Highmoss had only thirteen available players and the Féile is played as fifteen
a side competition. Being well aware of the problems of rural clubs in fielding
teams, Maghery sportingly agreed to play thirteen a side, so thanks to the club
for that gesture.

Sarsfields
led 2-06 to 2-04 at half time, but in a five minute period at the start of the second
half the Hoops conceded four goals to give the team a mountain. It became an
impossible task with Highmoss going a man down when Sheelin Breen went off with
an injury. However after the early goals Sarsfields tightened up their defewnce
and the midfield players began to gain control in the centre. Good movement in
the forward line saw Sarsfields eat into the Maghery lead. Unfortunately the
Highmoss came up short at the final whistle by three points, but it was a
gallant effort.

Best Wishes
to Sheelin Breen hope you are back on your feet very soon.
